Are you in the market for a slingshot? Don’t answer yet; few people wake in the morning with a burning desire for a new slingshot, but would you mind having a totally rad one? How about a slingshot made from the finest materials, and with so much power that it might be borderline illegal? Well, Montie Gear has just the device, designed by industrial design student Nicholas Pennington.

The Monie Gear Slingshot has a frame built from 0.5-inch thick aluminum plates for a combination of strength and low weight. Even if you run out of things to launch with it, you can still wield it like a club. The handle is also wrapped in a high-quality paracord for a better grip.

The slingshot can use 0.5-inch or smaller ammo, or really, anything you can fit in the leather pouch. The Thera-Band Gold flat band has a 16-pound pull and 28-inch draw. This should remain stretchy and usable much longer than the rubber tubing used on similar, but less expensive slingshots.

It goes without saying this is a fairly serious tool that should not be given to the young ones. Montie Gear goes to great pains to point that out, though. Still, plenty of buyers are after this unit all of a sudden. Demand in the last few days has pushed the wait time to 2-3 weeks from the date of order. If you simply must have it, the Montie Gear Slingshot can be yours for $99.95. Remember the immortal words of Spiderman: with great power, comes great responsibility.

We also must point out one thing this slingshot can’t do: play Angry Birds. For that you need a USB slingshot.
